Father, I Won’t Do Anything - Chapter 34
Not long ago, Rosian went to visit his mother, Elia, the Imperial princess with the fang from Jayna. He was going to ask how to make a sword out of it.
When Rosian showed her the fangs, Princess Elia, welcomed him with a very surprised look.
-She gave you her canine? She must have cherish you. You know you can make a holy sword out of a dragon teeth. Of course, this is small in size, but you can still make a great sword.
Elia thought Rosian had given her the fangs because she knew he wasn’t interested on learning swordsmanship.
In addition, the young dragon’s fangs were the right size to make a parrying dagger.
-Thank you for giving me something so precious.
But as soon as she tried to take the fang, Rosian pulled his hand. It was an unexpected reaction.
-Mom, I’d like to use that dagger.
-What?
-Jayna gave it to me, so I’ll use it.
Princess Elia doubted her ears as if she had misheard him.
-Didn’t you hate holding a sword? What’s with the sudden change?
Rosian answered with a serious face, recalling Michael’s words that he could only be next to Jayna when he reached the realm.
-It’s different now.
Elia said as if to test Rosian’s unusual appearance.
-It’s a rare and precious sword, so if you’re going to quit after a while, tell me now. Don’t insult the sincerity of the child who gave it to you.
-No, I won’t run away anymore. Until I reach the level I want.
‘Am I dreaming now?’
Elia looked down at her son in surprise.
In the eyes of Rosian, who always skipped sword training and hung out like a prodigal son, a determined will to protect someone can be seen.
‘I want to protect her and stay by her side.’
Rosian clenched his fist.
As she ran into the flames, he couldn’t do anything. He just watched from behind.
Even now, whenever he remembered that moment, he felt pathetic and resentful of himself.
If only he had power at that time, she wouldn’t be in danger.
Rosian clenched his teeth and swore to himself.
He’s not going to run anymore. If she doesn’t value herself, he’ll protect her instead.
I will no longer just sit there helplessly.

Once the “Relic Incident” was over with Jayna’s apology, the tower continued its peaceful days for a while.
Then, one day.
“Jayna, when is your birthday?”
“Come to think of it, it’s a month later.”
In response to Hilvenzia’s passing remarks, Jayna replied calmly. However, the aftermath was greater than she thought.
“Why are you only telling me that now?”
“If you hadn’t asked, I’d have let it go.”
The two seemed to ponder something.
Jayna was worried that she might be doing something too much for her birthday party.
And a few hours later, lunchtime rolled around the corner. This old birthday present has arrived.
It wasn’t Michael or Hilvenzia.
“Nobody wanted it, but our Towerlord gave me a big present, no, a package.”
Michael, who had been called by Diamide, came back and said,
“Hojisa Temple.”
Michael popped out with an irritated face with his arms crossed.
With no explanation or context, Jayna asked with a puzzled look.
“What?”
“This.”
Michael pointed at the man next to him with his chin.
“The Towerlord told me to take you.”
Clear sky-blue hair with red beams.
Jayna saw a familiar figure. There was no way she couldn’t recognize him.
Jayna asked Michael to tell him quickly that she was bullied because she was a mixed breed.
“My name is Izren. I’m in charge of escorting you from today onwards. God damn it.”
But why is Izren here? What about his life of self-defense.
I’ve never dreamed of this kind of development.’
Jayna blinked her eyes and stared at Michael again. But his forehead still frowned, which seemed to be a sign that it’s not a joke.
“Hmm. I know that Hojisa Temple is someone who protects you.”
Hilvenzia, who was next to Jayna, asked, twisting the pasta with a fork.
“When did it begin to be used as another meaning I didn’t know?”
“Hey, answer me.”
Michael raised his hand and slapped Izren’s forearm. Izren was just silent and unresponsive, even though it must have hurt quite a bit.
“You know what I’m saying because the Towerlord accepted me as a boaster? Are you ignoring me? Did he turn around because the Lord of the Tower accepted him as a servant?”
“Oh, come on. You can’t hear me. Maybe I can’t talk.”
Michael said as if he was still dumbfounded by Izren, who was still silent.
“What does it mean to add a life of luxury to your daughter who you hadn’t looked at since she came to the tower?” Should I kill him?”
Standing next to him, Jayna dissuaded Michael by pulling his arm.
“Stop it, Michael.”
Jayna looked at this relatively sexual Hilvenzia, while saying so, but Hilvenzia was even more than that.
“Yes, I’m going to disguise myself as an accident, so shouldn’t I say it out loud?”
The two openly expressed their disapproval of Izren.
Jayna, of course, didn’t think that Diamide had simply put Izren as her escort either.
‘The Towerlord thinks I’m a spy, so he’s trying to dig up information about the dragon in the name of escort. I’m quiet these days, so it’s also for surveillance purposes.’
After collecting her thoughts, Jayna hurriedly tried to stop Michael, who was giving a sharp look at Izren.
“I don’t mean to ignore him, he’s not good at the Imperial language. Maybe you don’t understand what we’re saying.”
When he first came to the tower, he kept saying, “I came to become a train driver.”
“And, ···, it’s hard to open your mouth because you’re alone in a place where you can’t communicate.”
When she thought he was also receiving the contempt he had received from the dragon, Jayna was not at ease.
“Go over there, scoop up some food.”
Jayna, who repeated the same words to Izren with gestures, soon resumed eating her meal.
The taste of the food was not as good as usual, but it takes a lot of meals to maintain a big body.
“……..”
Izren was quietly staring at Jayna from behind.
Meanwhile, since Jayna is being escorted by Izren, Hilvenzia has often fallen into mourning.
It was not only because I don’t know what the Towerlord ‘s intention was, but also because I think that the people in front of me could be a threat to Jayna.
‘I’m calm now, but I don’t know when my attitude will change.’
There might way if I wait until then, but it would be alreaydy late.
Hilvenzia decided to move before that.’
A person’s real intention comes out when the situation changes. I’m sure it’s the same for the mixed race.
“What are you going to buy in the auction house?”
“There’s something you can only buy there.”
Hilvenzia said so and hinted at Izren.
As if it were not a joke that he said he would take over the escort, Izren was quietly following Jayna.
The three headed to the auction house located outside the capital.
Jayna, who was gazing at the building from outside with her eyes filled with intrigue, couldn’t keep her mouth close from wonderment when she entered the auction house.
“I don’t know anything about the auction, but it’s a little different from what I’ve imagined.”
“How is it different?”
“It radiates a more nature-friendly atmosphere than I thought.”
Jayna blinked at the inside of the auction house, which was considered cozy.
“I don’t think it’s an ordinary item to the extent that you’re coming in person, but it’s divine to see such an item being handled here.”
“There was originally no light hawk open here until a while ago. The auction house was recently acquired.”
“Then how did you know it would be here?”
“Five, it’s a business secret. You’re sharp, my bunny lady.”
“I think I’m more of a lizard than a rabbit.”
“Then can I call you this instead of the name Jayna, bunny lizard lady?”
“It would be easy and nice to just call my name.”
The mask that Jayna was wearing was a white furry rabbit mask.
The mask, which covered almost all the small faces, looked very good on a child with a soft, fluffy cheeks.
“You gave Mr. Izren a plain mask.”
However, Jayna continued to fiddle with the strings as if this was not appropriate for her.
“Oh, Jayna doesn’t like being a rabbit lizard.”
“I thought you had a good sense of humor. What do you mean a rabbit and a lizard mixed together? It doesn’t suit you.”
Sun, with big eyes resembling a rabbit, said firmly.
“It breaks my heart to hear Jayna say that.”
Hilvenzia tilted her head as if she were just hurt.
It wasn’t just three people wearing masks. Most of those who entered the auction house were wearing masks to hide their identities.
Not long after the three sat down, the light on the stage on which the moderator rose was brightened.
“Welcome. Today’s light hawk is a little special, unlike any other time.”
The auctioneer, who climbed onto the podium, smiled and glistened his eyes for a moment.
“Those who have helped us a lot today will be authorized to participate in the special auction of the night.”
‘Special auction?’
Jayna looked up at Hilvenzia, snatching her head. Her lips drew a strange line.
